This process is completely independent from the DP-PMI: each applicant should contact directly the Ministry of Education (namely DGES) or a Portuguese university. To help the candidates, the DP-PMI has collected the information below.

Please note this process may incur in a cost and take several weeks to be concluded. Once the applicants have obtained the proof of the registration/recognition of their degree, they should include that proof in the submission of their DP-PMI application.

To obtain the proof of the registration/recognition of a degree obtained in a non-Portuguese university:

2. Be ready to send, at some point in the process, a paper version of your original diploma (or equivalent document) to the Portuguese institution dealing with the registration/recognition of your degree. The document should state clearly the name of the university and the awarded degree.

Notes:

Please note that the fees charged by the involved institutions might be non-refundable.

Also, please start this process early enough, so that you can submit your DP-PMI application, with the proof of the registration/recognition of your degree, by the deadline of the DP-PMI call.

Finally, please note this process is completely independent from the DP-PMI: for further assistance and more information, please contact directly the institutions mentioned above.
